Book excerpt: Geila takes you on a wild and incredible journey of love, joy, and healing, and straight into the heart and soul of Shaula Pearl, who survived a horrific existence of abuse and neglect. To truly enchant her, it took the magic of belief, a fearless enchantment plan, and support from the angelic realms, opening doorways to the spirit world. The luminous glow of divine guidance poured in, helping Shaula Pearl rise above her most frightening memories. Within a year, she was no longer stiff and afraid of everything, crammed into a small closet. Also, she found joy. It manifested in such an amazing and unexpected way, it leaves you in awe of the divine power of love and the value of all journeys. Shaula Pearl glows with spiritual messages, reminding us that all souls deserve their joyful inheritance, that it doesnt matter who we love, but that we love, and that animals are highly respected on the other side. Shaula Pearl knows that now, embracing her self-worth, linking her to the sacredness of her own soul. She claimed her inner-dog goddess. Also, Geilas own innate psychic abilities flourished. When you connect passionately with a soul who feels hopeless, and you love without conditions, you call in your angels, guides, and even your deceased dogs, with their own brand of enchantment. Enchanting Shaula Pearl takes you beyond a rescue story, into the realms of spirit, where all things are imaginable.
Download or read book Three Books of Occult Philosophy written by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa and published by Inner Traditions. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • Corrects the many mistranslations, copyist mistakes, and errors introduced from other editions, drawing on new research and access to Agrippa’s source texts • Restores all of Agrippa’s original illustrations • Presents a nearly complete bibliography of Agrippa’s primary sources One of the most important texts in the Western magical tradition for nearly 500 years, Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa’s 1533 work Three Books of Occult Philosophy collates a multitude of sources from the Classical, Medieval, and Renaissance periods and organizes them into a coherent explanation of the magical world. Divided into three parts--the natural world, the celestial world, and the divine world--the book systematically explains the philosophy, logic, and methods of magic and astrology and how they work, offering numerous examples, diagrams, techniques, and analogies. Agrippa’s seminal masterpiece provided the basis for 19th-century magical orders such as the Golden Dawn and has been a primary source for countless books on magical uses of stones, herbs, incense, and astrology. Additionally, Agrippa’s many lists and diagrams, especially the planetary seals and magic squares, have proven invaluable to magicians since the 16th century. Yet, up until now, all English editions of Agrippa’s Three Books were based on the same flawed 1651 translation from the mysterious “J.F.” In this new translation from the original 1533 Latin edition, Eric Purdue corrects the many mistranslations, copyist mistakes, and errors introduced from other editions, as well as restores all of Agrippa’s original illustrations. He notates every correction from earlier editions and offers commentary to rectify the original translator’s mistranslations. Drawing on major developments in the research of older magical and astrological texts since the 1990s, Purdue also presents a nearly complete bibliography of Agrippa’s primary sources, revealing how Agrippa was not writing from missing or secret texts but was a mainstream scholar of his day. Presenting the first new English translation of Three Books of Occult Philosophy in more than 350 years, this three-volume hardcover boxed set repairs the gaps in knowledge pervasive in the original translation as well as restores the magical spirit of Agrippa’s masterpiece, allowing us to hear Agrippa speak again.

Download or read book The Global Africa Project written by Lowery Stokes Sims and published by Prestel Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KEYNOTE: This book provides a savvy survey of the latest work by designers, craftspeople, and architects of African descent around the world. Artists and designers of African ancestry-many in Africa but also others throughout Europe, the Americas, and the Far East- are working in a wide array of mediums: fashion, architecture, non-traditional crafts, design, fine art, and photography. Authors Lowery Stokes Sims and Leslie King-Hammond, together with six contributors, challenge presumptions of what constitutes an 'African' style or aesthetic, and demonstrate the power and expressive potential of materials, textures and forms. Work by well-known artists such as Yinka Shonibare, MBE and architects including David Adjaye appear alongside those of lesser-known but equally exciting designers whose garments, carpets, baskets, ceramics, furniture, body arts, wall painting, photographs and sculpture blur the distinction between art and craft. The result is an enormously diverse display of young and established talent, and a wide-ranging survey of contemporary African art and design. AUTHOR: LOWERY STOKES SIMS is Director and Organizing Curator of the Global Africa Project and the Charles Bronfman International Curator at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City. She has published extensively on African, Latino, Native and Asian American Artists. She is a contributor to Fritz Scholder: Indian/ Not Indian (Prestel). LESLIE KING-HAMMOND is the founding director of the Center for Race and Culture and the Maryland Institute College of Art. A noted scholar, teacher, and curator, King-Hammond has directed numerous exhibitions on African-American art and artists. 200 colour illustrations
